 Cooley Law School hosted a breakfast program to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday, Jan. 20, at Cooley’s Auburn Hills campus. The program’s theme, “Reflections on Diversity in the Legal Profession,” allowed individuals an opportunity to discuss reasons why it is important for attorneys to reflect the diversity of the communities they serve.
